But, I also know that there are families for who that isn&#39;t an option. We (the collective we) need to get loud about what we expect in our school, political leadership. And we can&#39;t settle for second best because our children aren&#39;t directly affected.Mrs. Tenkelyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15943016358147486172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7005114591173102634.post-66384746664793079702010-03-11T07:09:15.358-05:002010-03-11T07:09:15.358-05:00Sounds like this guy &#39;overcame&#39; his strugg...Sounds like this guy &#39;overcame&#39; his struggles by hiding them - not really a victory if you ask me. I hope that&#39;s not what he advocates for the students of Detroit. That being said, I&#39;m all for second chances. If he really wants to be a role model for the youth, he should go back to school and learn to read and write.Colleenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02652192917856194015noreply@blogger.com
